Activated carbon material and systems are utilized for industrial air treatment in order to capture toxic air pollutants (primarily Volatile Organics Compounds, or VOC) from petrochemical plants, landfill sites, manufacturing operations, and chemical processing facilities. These air pollutants are covered under the Clean Air Act.
Industrial Air Treatment with Activated Carbon Technologies & Solutions:
Typical areas in petroleum, manufacturing, and chemical plants that may require control of organics emissions (hazardous, toxic or create nuisance odors, are:
- Process vents
- Product, waste storage, clarifier slop tank vents
- Vacuum filter exhausts
- Drainage and collection system manholes
- Oil/water separators
- Loading/unloading terminals
- Filter presses
- Vapor Recovery Units
Industrial air treatment with activated carbon is the leading technology for the removal of VOCs from air and other gases, including the removal of siloxanes from biogas. In most cases, the compound can be removed to below the detection limit, which means that the most stringent air quality regulations can be met and exceeded. The technology is reliable, simple and has been proven over many years.
